Sorrowful Hearts // Searching / Joining

▹▹▹▹Unlike everyone else, Clementine had heard no such rumors of murders or chaos occuring in the depths of the night. She had no inclination of the true dangers that she had just walked through- and by some miracle- made it safely. That was the innocence and the protection that had been offered by her isolation. Her ignorance and her loneliness were all atrributed to this one fact. Hence, she had no idea what sort of danger she was in being all the way out here by the border, but perhaps thankfully for her, it was still daylight. Thankfully for her, someone was there to greet her. A cheery looking girl who looked her age- despite Clementine's stunted height. The big smile on her face was momentarily daunting, and her words sent a spike of fear running down her heart, her face falling slowly. Doesn't know a Pierce? No! She had to know! He had to be here! She knew he was here! Right? He wouldn't just leave her!

For a moment, she was stunned speechless as her thoughts whirled and emotions bubbled in her chest, her breath wheezing for a moment before it caught in her throat with a cough, snapping her out of it as she drew a breath in and looked back up. "I... I'm Clementine. Clementine Parker," the answer came, as steady as she could manage her voice with the fear of her father not being around sinking into her soul. Maybe we could go look for him! Her body tensed with the immediate threat of 'stranger danger', but it was far, far too late for that. Instead, she found her head slowly nodding before her mind caught up to the question, her desire overtaking logic. "That's a good idea. He has to be around here somewhere, please..."
